Hi,

There's no built-in PDF export in the Android library. At this time you could send diagram's XML file to a web server and export it on the server using Mindfusion's Java or .NET libraries.

But in the documenttation there is this sentence:

A DiagramDocument can be exported to PDF using the new overloads available in the PdfExporter. Other export classes do not support multi-page export at this time, but still can be used to export individual pages via their Export(Diagram) method

what does it mean? Here is the link: http://www.mindfusion.eu/onlinehelp/droiddiagram/index.htm

I guess someone copied the doc.comment of DiagramDocument class from Java version of the library without checking what it says. There's no PdfExporter available in Android diagram at this time. The sentence is still true though Wink If you export on server side, it's still only PdfExporter that supports multi-page export.

It seems Google added native PdfDocument class for PDF generation in API level 19 -

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/pdf/PdfDocument.html

Try following the example above, replacing the content.draw line with diagram.draw(page.getCanvas());
